Dominate the Battlefield: Intel Battlemage GPUs Revealed

Intel Arc GPU

After releasing its first-generation Arc Alchemist GPUs in 2022, Intel now seems to be on a two-year cadence, as seen by the appearance of the Battlemage in a shipping manifest. This suggests that Battlemage GPUs are being supplied to Intel’s partners for testing, as it’s the first time they’ve seen any proof of them existing in the real world. Intel is probably getting ready for a launch later this year given the timing of this.

Two Battlemage GPUs are being shipped by Intel to its partners, per a recently discovered shipment manifest that was published on X. The GPUs’ designations, G10 and G21, suggest Intel is taking a similar approach as Alchemist, offering one SKU that is more or less high-end for “mainstream” gamers and one that is less expensive.

Intel Arc Graphics Cards

As you may remember, Intel had previously announced plans to launch four GPUs in the Alchemist family:

Intel Arc A380

The A380, A580, A750, and A770. However, only the latter two were officially announced. They anticipate that the A750 and A770, which Intel most likely delivers at launch for midrange gamers, will be replaced by the G10.

They’ve never heard of cards being “in the wild,” but two Battlemage GPUs have shown up in the Si Soft benchmark database before. The fact that both of those cards have 12GB of VRAM stood out as particularly noteworthy. This suggests that Intel increased their base-level allowance from 8GB, which is a wise decision in 2024. As stated by Intel’s CEO earlier this year, Battlemage was “in the labs” in January.

Intel Arc A770

A previously released roadmap from Intel indicates that the G10 is a 150W component and the G21 is 225W. It is anticipated that Intel will reveal notable improvements in Battlemage’s AI capabilities, greater upscaling performance, and ray tracing performance. As 225W GPUs were the previous A750 and A770, it seems Battlemage will follow the script when it comes to its efficiency goals. The business has previously declared that it wishes to aim for this “sweet spot” in terms of power consumption, wherein one PCIe power cable is needed rather than two (or three).

While the industry as a whole is anxious to see how competitive Intel will be with its second bite at the apple, gamers aren’t exactly waiting impatiently for Intel to introduce its GPUs like they do with Nvidia or AMD’s next-gen. Even if the company’s Alchemist GPUs were hard to suggest when they first came out, significant performance advancements have been made possible by the company’s drivers.

The Intel Battlemage G10 and G21 next-generation discrete GPUs, which have been observed in shipment manifests, are anticipated to tackle entry into the mid-range market. They already know from the horse’s mouth that Intel is working on its next generation of discrete graphics processors, which it has revealed are being code-named Battlemage. The company is developing at least two graphics processing units, according to shipping excerpts.

Intel Battlemage GPUs

The shipping manifest fragments reveal that Intel is working on several GPUs specifically for the Battlemage G10 and G21 versions. The newest versions in Intel’s graphics processor lineup include the ACM-G11, an entry-level graphics processor, and the ACM-G10, a midrange market positioning and higher-end silicon graphics processor. As a result, the names Battlemage-G10 and Battlemage-G21, which are aimed at entry-level PCs and bigger chips, respectively, match the present names for Intel’s Arc graphics processors. Both stand a strong chance of making their list of the best graphics cards if they deliver acceptable levels of performance.

The Battlemage-G10 and Battlemage-G21 are being shipped for research and development, as stated in the shipping manifest (which makes sense considering these devices’ current status). The G21 GPU is currently in the pre-qualification (pre-QS) stage of semiconductor development; the G10’s current status is unknown.

Pre-qualification silicon is used to assess a chip’s performance, reliability, and functionality. Pre-QS silicon is typically not suitable for mass production. However, if the silicon device is functional and meets the necessary performance, power, and yield requirements, mass production of the device could be feasible. For example, AMD’s Navi 31 GPU, if it meets the developer’s objectives, is mass-produced in its A0 silicon phase.

They rarely get to cover Intel’s developments with its next-generation graphics cards, but they frequently cover Nvidia’s, as they did recently with the GeForce RTX 50-series graphics processors, which should appear on their list of the best graphics cards based on industry leaks.

This generation, Nvidia seems to be leading the laptop discrete GPU market, but Battlemage, with Intel’s ties to OEMs and PC manufacturers, might give the green team some serious competition in the next round. According to the cargo manifest, there will be intense competition among AMD’s RDNA 4, Intel’s Battlemage, and Nvidia’s Blackwell in the forthcoming desktop discrete GPU market.

Qualities:

Targeting Entry-Level and Mid-Range: The ACM-G11 and ACM-G10, the successors to the existing Intel Arc Alchemist series, are probably meant for gamers on a tight budget or seeking good performance in games that aren’t AAA.

Better Architecture: Compared to the Xe-HPG architecture found in Intel’s existing Arc GPUs, readers can anticipate an upgrade in this next-generation design. Better performance per watt and even new features could result from this.

Emphasis on Power Efficiency: These GPUs may place equal emphasis on efficiency and performance because power consumption is a significant element in laptops and tiny form factor PCs.

Potential specifications (derived from the existing Intel Arc lineup and leaks):

Production Process: TSMC 6nm (or, if research continues, a more sophisticated node) Unknown is the core configuration. Possibly less cores than Battlemage models at higher levels (should any exist).

Memory: GDDR6 is most likely used, yet its bandwidth and capacity are unclear. Power Consumption: Designed to use less power than GPUs with higher specifications.

FAQS

What are the Battlemage G10 and G21 GPUs?

Intel is developing the Battlemage G10 and G21, next-generation GPUs that should provide notable gains in capabilities and performance over their predecessors.

What markets or segments are these GPUs targeting?

Targeting a wide range of industries, including professional graphics, gaming, and data centres, the Battlemage G10 and G21 GPUs are expected to meet the demands of both consumers and businesses.

Intel 'Alder Lake' 12th Gen Core, 'Alchemist' GPU Architectures Detailed

Intel held a virtual Architecture Day presentation, disclosing details of the engineering behind several upcoming products in the consumer and data centre spaces. While exact specifications of CPUs and GPUs will have to wait till they are actually launched, we now have a better idea of the building blocks that Intel is using to put them together. Intel SVP and GM of the Accelerated Computing Systems and Graphics group, Raja Koduri, led the presentation during when multiple senior Intel engineers appeared. The 12th Gen Core CPU lineup, codenamed ‘Alder Lake', is expected to launch within the next few months, starting with desktop models. These will be the first mainstream Intel CPUs to feature a mix of high-performance and low-power cores – which is common across mobile SoCs today. This follows the experimental ‘Lakefield' CPU which has had only a limited release so far. Alder Lake will use a more modular approach than before, with different combinations of logic blocks for different product segments. Intel will use the terms Performance core and Efficient core, often shortened to P core and E core. For Alder Lake, the E cores are based on the ‘Gracemont' architecture while the P cores use the ‘Golden Cove' design. For Gracemont, Intel targeted physical silicon size and throughput efficiency, to target multi-threaded performance across a large number of individual cores. These cores run at low voltage and will be used primarily by simpler processes. The Golden Cove-based P cores are designed for speed and low latency. Intel calls this the highest-performing core it has ever built. New with this generation is support for Advanced Matrix Extensions for accelerating deep learning training and inference.   Three different Alder Lake dies will serve different product segments Combined, this generation of P and E cores in the Alder Lake architecture will be highly scalable, from 9W to 125W, which covers most of today's mobile and desktop categories. It will be manufactured using the newly announced Intel 7 process, which is a rebranding of the 10nm ‘Enhanced SuperFIN' process. Different implementations will integrate different combinations of DDR5, PCIe Gen5, Thunderbolt 4, and Wi-Fi 6E. The desktop implementation will use a new LGA1700 socket with up to eight performance cores (two threads each), eight efficient cores (single-threaded), and 30MB of last-level cache memory. The integrated GPU will have up to 32 execution units for basic display output and graphics capabilities. It will not have integrated Thunderbolt or an image processing block, but it will support 16 lanes of PCIe Gen5 plus another four lanes of PCIe Gen4. The matching platform controllers for motherboards will have up to 12 more PCIe Gen4 and 16 PCIe Gen3 lanes. Two mobile versions of Alder Lake were also discussed – a more mainstream die with six P cores and eight E cores, and an ultracompact die with two P cores and eight E cores. Both will have GPUs with 96 execution units as well as image processing units and integrated Thunderbolt controllers, and will be aimed at devices that won't have discrete GPUs. All Alder Lake CPUs are comprised of modular logic blocks – the CPU cores, GPU, memory controller, IO, and more. They will support up to DDR5-4800, LPDDR5-5200, DDR4-3200 and LPDDR4X-4266 RAM, and it will be up to motherboard and laptop OEMs to decide which to implement. The modular blocks of each CPU will be connected through three fabrics – Compute, Memory, and IO. Intel describes 100GBps of compute fabric bandwidth per P core or per cluster of four E cores, for a total of 1000GBps between 10 such units. Last-level cache can be dynamically adjusted between inclusive and exclusive depending on load.

Thread Director requires Windows 11 for optimum utilisation of all cores We now have a bit of information about how workloads will be balanced between P and E cores. Intel is announcing a new hardware scheduler called Thread Director, which will be completely transparent to software and will work with the OS scheduler to assign threads to different cores based on urgency and real-time conditions. Designed to scale across mobile and desktop CPUs, Thread Director will be able to adapt to thermal and power conditions and migrate threads from one type of core to another, as well as manage multi-threading on the P cores, with “nanosecond precision”. Thread Director requires Windows 11, and so Alder Lake will perform optimally under this upcoming OS, though Windows 10, Linux, and other OSes will also work. It means that the OS scheduler now understands what kinds of threads require what kinds of resources, and can prioritise latency, power saving, or other parameters depending on operating conditions. Intel has been teasing its first high-end gaming GPU for a while now, and is ramping up hype with the recent announcement of a new Intel Arc brand for GPU hardware, software and services. The first-generation product is codenamed ‘Alchemist', and will launch in early 2022. This is a tier of the Xe architecture product stack known as Xe-HPG, or High Performance Gaming. Alchemist will be manufactured by TSMC on its N6 node. It will support hardware ray tracing as well as DirectX 12 Ultimate features such as mesh shading and variable rate shading.

XeSS will use AI to upscale frames and improve performance, much like DLSS Each first-gen Xe-HPG core will have 16 vector engines and 16 matrix engines plus caches, allowing for common GPU workloads as well as AI acceleration. Four such cores, plus four ray tracing units and other rendering hardware, make up a “slice”. Each Alchemist GPU can have up to eight such slices. Now, we also know that Intel will roll out its own version of AI upscaling, called XeSS (Xe Super Sampling), to take on Nvidia's DLSS and AMD's FSR. XeSS is an AI-based upscaling method that combines information from previous frames. Intel is claiming up to 2X better performance by rendering at lower resolutions and then upscaling to the target resolution. XeSS will run even on Xe LP integrated GPUs, and multiple game developers are on board to support it. While we don't have any GPU specifications yet, Intel did say it has worked on delivering “leadership” performance per Watt. We're sure to find out more as the launch draws nearer. Intel also made several announcements related to its server and datacentre businesses during the Architecture Day, including a demonstration of the upcoming Ponte Vecchio architecture for big data which will be the basis of the Aurora exascale supercomputer. Other highlights were the modular ‘Sapphire Rapids' Xeon Scalable platform, the oneAPI software stack, and an emerging product category – Infrastructure Processing Units (IPUs), designed to separate infrastructure overheads from client data and processing requirements in cloud-centric datacentres.

Intel нарисовала в небе свою будущую видеокарту бренда Arc, используя 1000 дронов

New Post has been published on https://v-m-shop.ru/2021/08/17/intel-narisovala-v-nebe-svoyu-budushhuyu-videokartu-brenda-arc-ispolzuya-1000-dronov/

Intel нарисовала в небе свою будущую видеокарту бренда Arc, используя 1000 дронов

Вероятно, примерно так карта и будет выглядеть

Компания Intel продолжает дразнить своими будущими игровыми видеокартами. На сей раз компания задействовала 1000 дронов для того, чтобы изобразить в небе 3D-карту.  

Если точнее, дроны изображали разные продукты, но нас интересует именно видеокарта. Нельзя однозначно утверждать, что Intel нарисовала в небе адаптер, каким он выйдет на рынок, но это вполне вероятно. Кроме того, ранее мы уже видели фото инженерного образца карты DG2-512, и там карта тоже имела кулер с парой вентиляторов.  

Напомним, видеокарты Intel будут существовать под новоиспечённым брендом Arc. Первые модели выйдут в начале следующего года, а вчера Intel даже показала, как одна такая карта справляется с играми.

How Lunar Lake Intel Integrated Graphics Boost Performance

Lunar Lake Intel

Although there have been rumours circulating for months, I recently got some slides that pretty much confirm what has been said. According to reports, the Lunar Lake processors can have up to eight cores total four potent Lion Cove P cores and four efficiency-focused Skymont E cores at most. This setup reaffirms Intel’s ongoing emphasis on striking a balance between efficiency and performance in order to create a processor architecture that can manage a broad variety of computing demands while preserving energy economy.

The Intel Arc Battlemage is the confirmed basis for the integrated GPU (iGPU) found in the Lunar Lake processors, which can support up to 64 Xe2 Execution Units (EUs) and 8 Xe2 cores. This configuration suggests a notable improvement in graphics performance that may establish new standards for integrated graphics solutions. The use of TSMC’s N3B manufacturing technology for Lunar Lake’s compute tile is a noteworthy design innovation that represents a substantial shift in Intel’s strategy for utilising outsourced technology for its high-end chips.

The instructions per cycle (IPC) for the CPU core can also be improved in a number of ways by the architecture. Support for LPDDR5 memory has been added to this, complementing the integration of new memory technologies. LPDDR5 memory is more energy-efficient and faster than LPDDR4. The next generation of Lunar Lake-based laptops, tablets, and other mobile devices that depend on battery life and power consumption need these features.

Additionally, Microsoft, which places a high value on optimising software-hardware interaction, particularly for the anticipated changes in the Windows operating system, has collaborated in the development of the Lunar Lake MX chips. Users may anticipate a more optimised implementation of CPU features as a result of this collaboration, particularly in environments running the most recent versions of Microsoft operating systems. Early benchmarks of the Lunar Lake iGPU, which employs the Battlemage “Xe2” architecture, demonstrate impressive graphics performance. In certain internal tests, it nearly doubles the performance and is much faster than its predecessors.

Intel Lunar Lake Regretfully, the documents do not contain any verifiable third-party results or tangible benchmarks. Even in thin and light notebook form factors, this improvement may mark a turning point for integrated graphics and offer enough performance for increasingly demanding graphical tasks and games. But in order to avoid succumbing to the same false optimism that has already been severely let down by Arc, we will have to wait for the actual testing. But as we all know, drivers die first, and hope dies last.

With the documented improvements in core architecture, improved manufacturing techniques, and software-hardware optimisation (many thanks to Intel! ), Lunar Lake Intel has the potential to temporarily alter expectations for computing performance and energy efficiency. Specifically, the focus on integrated graphics performance highlights Intel’s dedication to offering reliable computing solutions for a variety of uses, including productivity and gaming. The tech community is looking forward to official announcements and more information from Intel, which is sadly not available from a few unofficial slides that are circulating. Really quite unfortunate.

While there have long been leaks and rumours surrounding Lunar Lake Intel CPU, recent events appear to corroborate some important details

Design for mobile devices first Lunar Lake Intel is made with a 15W TDP (thermal design power) in mind, which is in line with Intel’s U-series CPUs, which are renowned for striking a balance between performance and battery life.

Hybrid Architecture As with the Alder Lake and Raptor Lake architectures, the CPU is expected to combine energy-efficient Skymont cores (up to 4) with high-performance Lion Cove cores (up to 4).

Better Graphics Based on Intel’s Arc Battlemage architecture, the integrated graphics unit (iGPU) has the potential to provide 64 Xe2 Execution Units (EUs), which would result in a notable improvement in graphics performance compared to earlier generations.

Manufacturing Shift Intel is reportedly utilising TSMC’s N3B process to manufacture Lunar Lake Intel compute tile, which represents a shift as the company looks outside of foundries for the production of its high-end chips.

Performance Gains Intel reports a three-fold increase in AI performance for the GPU and Neural Processing Unit (NPU), along with “significant” improvements in instructions per cycle (IPC) for the CPU cores.

Intel Lunar Lake Release Date Rumours indicate a late 2024 release alongside Arrow Lake for desktops, though there is no official date as of yet. Although it seems like a rapid turnaround, trade shows have reportedly seen Intel display working Lunar Lake chips. The core of entry-level and energy-efficient laptops is anticipated to be Lunar Lake Intel , which may also include some options for light gaming.

It’s crucial to remember that official specs may vary from those based on leaks and rumours. As the formal launch draws nearer, stay tuned for more details.
